Sen. Anthony Galluccio, facing legal trouble from an unexplained car accident, has drawn a Democratic primary challenger in next year’s election.
Dan Hill, a 36-year-old Charlestown attorney little known in political circles, said he plans to announce his campaign either Friday or Monday.
“I’m definitely in,” he told the News Service Wednesday.

“I think that I can be a more effective senator,” Hill said. “This district is a very unique, diverse Senate district. It’s been represented very well in the past by Sen. [Jarrett] Barrios. I think I can do a better job, frankly, of being a leader on progressive issues than Sen. Galluccio.”
Hill said he specializes in government law, with a focus on land use and real estate development. He said his policy agenda would focus on natural resources protection, renewable energy, education, and economic revitalization.
Does anybody here know Dan Hill? If Mr. Hill really is a progressive, then this sounds like a positive and constructive response to the exchanges we've had here regarding Mr. Galluccio's obvious personal issues.
